Great and Massive Kudos to you and your family for being True and Decent Human Beings and my most sincere condolences on the loss of your brother, it IS people like yourselves that bolster my hopes for Humanity and the Human Race.
You've reminded me of when our little community with a population of around 19,000 people all got together and collected nearly 300 tonnes of non-perishable goods, blankets, tents, cooking utensils,clothing, etc, with not a Bible in the entire lot then asked a Xrstian Charity IF they'd help us to send them to the needy in the big Himalayan Earthquake a few years back.
The Charity, which I won't name at present though a well media publicised one, REFUSED point-blank since " We had NOT included bibles or religious materials in our donations."
We searched around and found a Non-Religious, Non-Government Group that not only sent trucks to collect everything we had collected BUT also air freighted it ALL to the needy FREE of Charge.
We had also struck the same problem when we had collected for the Boxing Day Tsunami, a refusal from a Xrstian Charity BUT an acceptance and assistance from another Non-Religious/Non-Government Organisation who also air freighted our collection totally free of charge.
I tend to think that " If you want something done the right and decent way, then do it yourself/selves and do NOT rely upon or let the religious organisations finish the job."

We need more people like you and your family...I am so sorry for the loss of your brother in law.

GipsyOfnewSpain, your nobility and thoughtfulness is to be commended by all, I do not go by color, race, religion, I simply respect good people and you can number yourselves as great people! Hugs to you and your family and friends,more importantly, stay safe. X

I was in hurricane "Floyd" in the Virgin Islands and found that thoughts and prayers got blown to the next destination of the storm, just like the mosquitoes did. Bye!

Great work!

Commendations to your family your friends and yourself imagine a world with more like you.

Thank You!

Thank you for what you're doing!

Wow! Beautiful story! I don’t see this often! Makes me want to do more.

Actions rather than superficial superstitions .Bravo

Thank you! Hugs

Great job helping out. Unfortunately, the US gov’t is too racist to help out.

Awesome

Glad to hear you all helping, because no matter what, you will not get any help from the US government.

Bravo and thank you!

The difference between doers and believers .

THANK YOU!!!!!!

Don't forget that Trump was in Puerto Rico tossing paper towels ......that was his contribution.

A job well done.
